Akron football player Artem Dzyuba said he had a better chance of breaking the goal record this season than a hockey player Alexander Ovechkin .
Dzyuba scored 231 goals during his professional career; in the list of top scorers in the history of Russian football, he is second only to Alexander Kerzhakov (233). Moreover, Dzyuba is close to reaching Dmitry Loskov, who is the record holder for the goal+pass system (120+145) in the entire history of the Russian Championship. To overtake him, Dzyuba (162+98) must score six points.
Ovechkin ranks second in the list of the best snipers of regular NHL championships (863 goals), just behind Canadian Wayne Gretzky (894).
— You’re talking about a record. Is it in your head?
— Sometimes I think that if I were at Spartak now, I would score five goals. In fact, if there is not a single cross or a single pass… The attacker is dependent on passes. I’m with the team, we win together and we lose together. But we went too far, we should have played higher.
— Who will break the record first: Dzyuba or Ovechkin?
– I have more chances. But he has more matches. I want Sasha to break the record as quickly as possible. Because I didn’t really believe he would score so many goals this season. No one believed it, but so far it is happening in a very powerful way. The whole world is waiting for this,” reports a correspondent, according to Dzyuba’s words.
